i find it amusing, all the people who appear to be taking this thread seriously
i hope your just trying to kill the thread, because posting that your level 28 rogue can kill him isnt what we want to hear.

on a lighter note

my guild managed to get him down to 30% the other night
we even had our members who didnt get a spot in the main raid to form a gnome cavalry to help with the encounter
we used the paladin tank technique to deal with the bears and gnoll adds
and we almost survived the AoE phase
but in the end he got the better of us, the gnome cavalry was soon scattered and we had some loose adds tearing up our dpsers
we'll have another shot at him next week, but im expecting yet another wipe.

cant wait for wotlk, a good raid of t8+ players might actually get a kill on him
until then, we can only pray, pray he never decides to wander north

think of the devastation, hogger let loose upon Stormwind...

Q u o t e:

what the hell is goin on here. he is easy to kill. i just killed him by myself with mt level 28 rogue. clearly he is
NOT the toughest world boss


Don't lie.
Screenie or it didn't happen.

In all seriousness though, i really need to down him.
Some of the 2h's from him would really improve my TG specc, http://thottbot.com/i3192 in particular looks extremely good, Of the Whale of course.

Still haven't completed his Pre-Q yet though. Kil'Jaeden is still proving pretty hard : /

We did KJ last tuesday for a server first.
I finally managed to finish the Prequest.. I'm now working on the 'if it worked for Archimonde' quest.
Taming and training 100 wisps to suicide on Hogger is proving quite difficult..
And wisps are starting to get rare in Darnassus.. I hope the druids won't come looking for me...

- Does Railgun Ammo come in Hollowpoint?

Rumour has it that Hogger has just been killed!
Just joking, who ever does that will, well, they will be imortalized in the hall of kings.
simple yet affective advice

1) you need a minimum of 40 peeps,
2) 3 tanks, all aggro sharing, fight for aggro, this is to make sure if 1 guy dies, the other 39 have a chance.
3) complete the pre qs that are set in Goldshire, moving over to various 25 man and 40 man raids.
4) Dots, more Dots!
5) Rogues, dont over aggro, even ur dodge rate u will die!
.
.
.
.50) finally, have fun!

Yesterday we summoned the Headless Horseman and Hoggar was sitting behind him on the horse.
First he killed the Horseman and stole our epic loot, then he whiped the whole Scarlet Monastery. Then he took off on his newly aquired broom!

While corpse running back, i heard he was ganking Horde in Undercity

"Spoiler"

Next expansion will be "The Rein of Hogger"

Hogger has taken over all major cities and all zones in azeroth.

Rumors are that Blizzard will make it possible to have a 500 people raid to be able to kill him.

Trying to kill him now is...madness.

Hex: 45 second cooldown. Enemies move freely. Most of the new mobs are undead.
This is exactly what we wanted Blizzard!!!!

they instantly use: This is sparta,for real and kicks you down into the endless toilet of chuck norris

you will get hit by hogger for 9000X9000 dmgouttathisworld and get the debuff "hogger knows where you live".end of story

H-how foolish I was.. I WAS YOUNG, OKAY?! I WAS NAIVE!

It all started when I decided to take a stroll around Elwynn, my home, when I heard a terrifying roar.. one of wich I only heard of in tales. I wanted to be a hero.. so I sought it out and, well what do you know, it was a mere little gnoll.. pft! I thought.. 'Ha? This made the roar.. how terriiifyiing' I thought.. I threw a dagger at it, but that is when things -really- got out of control. I heard a clang and kept walking , thinking I killed the poor sod.

Little did I know it was the sound of my dagger deflecting, it approached me with such speed it engaged into the all-around famous warp-10, shifting through me and causing serious mental damage, I dropped to my knees, screaming like a little twelve year old, the beast approached me and.. and.. I dare not speak of what he did to me. I dare not. It involved beating, gnolls, dark places, airplanes and some fruity lamposts smeared in syrop conjured from the very depth of a place you wish wouldn't exsist.

The lich king wanted to take over SW... the only reason he didn't is because he was scared he might disturb hogger.

There are some tips for this encounter I can offer, whilst they never worked with me (I'm not really geared for the encounter yet), I hope they can be of use for you.

Firstly, ensure you have all members of you raid fully flasked with food buffs. This is something that goes without saying, I'm sure.

You need to note that hogger uses three key abilities in the encounter, of which he uses differently from phase to phase. Since no one to my knowledge has ever reached the third (and final) phase, my knowledge is limited at that point. You need to watch out in phase one for the Head Butt ability. It will stun an enemy, rendering it unable to move or attack for 2 seconds. This ability can be used on the main tank, and Hogger will show no mercy in how he uses this. In phase one he only uses this ability, so it's not too bad if you keep the DPS up and the main tank alive.

Phase 2, Hogger continues the headbut spam, and begins casting Rushing Charge, which increases his movement speed by 60% for 3 seconds and causes him to inflict additional damage on his next attack. This can be a real killer if your healers are not prepared, as when coupled with the Head Butt (they can be used in conjunction) it can be devestating. Keep the HoTs up and be sure to Bandage where needed, this is a long and arduous fight and healers will need all the mana they can get to keep up your tank.

Phase 3.. who knows, if you know then do tell!

WIN!

EDIT: First lol <3

Anci your avatar better be a Ice stone!











Also, the only hope we have in defeating Hogger...
















Is to combine the fountain in Dalaran & The Ice Stone. NOTHING else suffices.

How do you guys even manage to get to Hogger? Last week we wiped over and over again on trash.

Is it possible for someone to link a guide on how to kill those damn Riverpaw Outrunners? It would
be much appreciated.
